MLA Embedding Quotations and In-Text Citations CITING SOURCES Google Apps

⭐ NO PREP DIGITAL LESSON: Engage students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades with this interactive lesson as an introduction to embedding quotations and providing in-text citations in MLA style. Students will highlight text and type in their own responses to prompts as they learn about citing sources.

Students will:

• differentiate between direct quotations and paraphrased text
• explain what signal words and phrases are and why a writer uses them
• explain three ways a writer embeds direct quotations (set off the quotation with a comma, build the quotation into a sentence, introduce the quotation with a colon)
• explain two ways a writer adds in-text citations (parenthetical and narrative)

**DESIGNED FOR GRADES 6-8**

►This lesson is ideal for whole group, small group, and one-on-one instruction for the grade levels I have tagged. It also works well for Response to Intervention (RTI), private tutoring, summer school, and remote learning.

►For students working below grade level, I recommend using the teacher-led/ direct instruction method outlined in the teacher guide. The slideshow is designed with gradual release, BUT some students will need a high level of teacher support throughout the lesson.

►A note about using this lesson for independent work... This lesson could be assigned for homework or learning stations if your students have been introduced to the concepts and skills prior to assigning it. I would also consider whether or not your students are good at reading and following directions as the activities switch every few slides.
